The truth is despite the hard work and juggling required to keep the different facets of the frantic life afloat, the "superwoman"has one marvelous compensation. Being busy and being seen to be busy lets you off the hook.

When you combine wife, mother, career and all, each role become the perfect excuse for avoiding the worst aspects of the other.

I have been wrong lots of times before and am not afraid of it".

⋅Benedict XVI leaves no room for uncertainty or minimization. At this present time in which she feels humiliation, the Church learns from the Pope to not fear the truth, even when it is painful, to not hide it or cover it up.
